Community community

This is the community to talk about communities and learn how we can make communities better - create the ones we would like to see in the world, and improve the ones we happen to be in.

This group operates under the understanding that by being raised mostly in authoritarian structures of some kind or another we have unlearned a lot about healthy equal-to-equal relationships and healthy self-ruling communities, but it's still out there somewhere. Let's get this power back and collect knowledge here! Examples of what could go here:

Personal stories: your experience matters. Let's learn from each other's successes and failures (no, they were not really failures, they were learning experiences!)
How to create/maintain a community
How to solve conflict
Differences between physical/online communities?
Different communities: local, hobby, mutual aid, based on origin, ...
Multi-generational communities: pass on the poison or plant seeds?
Split or stay together? When fundamental values collide

Be kind to each other, we are all learning.

More mods welcome!

I'm wondering about making a voidpunk community here on slrpnk.net. I've got a bit on my plate to handle moderating it right now but it's a serious consideration for me later in the year. Is it a good idea? Do any of you here identify as such as well? I consider myself part of both communities.

Very informative reply, thank you! I'm a total noob to the fediverse, tbh. My understanding so far is that voidpunk is the rejection of all standard (or majority) culture. I believe it technically encompasses all alternative ideologies and identities but seems most specific to those facing dehumanization and/or derealization. It's a spooky and often quite sad side of punk. It's taken over a majority of my artwork the last few years so I've been feeling... drawn to the community.
